Yeh agree with you on Heighington. Dont know about Covell though! Apart from his goal kicking (which hasnt even been that good this season) and ability to catch a ball and place it over the line, I dont think theres much to him

He would be close to the best second rower/lock in the game if he could learn to pull his head in and cut the s'hit out of his game.

His statistics speak for themselves. Regularly leads the Sharks in total metres and tackle count

over rated- K.Hunt - Very good player, I just don't think he is as good as people make out
C.Wing - How he was picked ahead of M.Orford in the Aussie team is the million dollar question

under rated- Tongue - Heart and soul of the raiders and doesn't get near enough recognition
Heighington - How he was left out of the top 46 is beyond me.

I've left G.Stewart out, because I thought he was under-rated until he was selected in the top 46 players in the country, now I'd say he's rated about where he should be.

True.

Probably true.

Definitely false. Apart from the tendancy to give away too many penalties he is a great player. One of the main reasons the Sharks (who on paper shouldn't have even been gauranteed a spot in the Cool are still challenging for the minor premiership 5 weeks away from the start of the playoffs.
